41 Then he (A)brought me to the (B)sanctuary, and he measured the (C)side pillars: six [a]cubits wide on each side was the width of the [b]side pillar. 2 The width of the entrance was ten cubits and the [c]sides of the entrance were five cubits on each side. He also measured [d]the length of the sanctuary, (D)forty cubits, and the width, (E)twenty cubits. 3 Then he went [e](F)inside and measured each (G)side pillar of the doorway, two cubits, and the doorway, six cubits high; and the width of the doorway, seven cubits. 4 And he measured its length, (H)twenty cubits, and the width, twenty cubits, before the (I)sanctuary; and he said to me, “This is the (J)Most Holy Place.”
